For You Cifras

"FOR YOU" - Split Enz, from their first single 'For You' (1973)
 
Note: this song is originally fingerpicked and if you roughly follow the tab below in a sort of percussive
finger style then you can get pretty close to the original, a strange picking pattern with an extra bass 
thumb
note thrown in where you least expect it... that's Phil Judd for you!

[Verse 1]
Dsus2/F#
  We're outside the times
A
  Seen the break of day
                               G
  My parents beat me 'cause I laughed
     B
  Or something like that
Dsus2/F#
  For nights on end
A
  You've been my friend
G                                       A(add9) A A(add9)  F(add9) F
  I've turned the lights on just for you
         G(add9) G G(add9)       F(add9) F F(add9) F             E
  For you,                for you,                     just for you
 
 
[Verse 2]
Dsus2/F#
  Blueboys on the stage
A
  Yes he's quite the rage
                               G
  His parents loved his blue eyes
     B
  He knows where it's at
Dsus2/F#
  People think he's queer
A
  But to be quite fair
G                                 A(add9) A A(add9)  F(add9) F
  You know he does it just for you
         G(add9) G G(add9)       F(add9) F F(add9) F             E
  For you,                for you,                     just for you
 
 
[Verse 3]
Dsus2/F#
  You laugh so easily, but you
  A
  can see what it's like to be
                               G
  They kicked your eyes in at four
            B
  When they shut the door
Dsus2/F#
  Playing out masquerade
A
  Even soldiers on parade
G                                 A(add9) A A(add9)  F(add9) F
  The game they play is just for you
         G(add9) G G(add9)       F(add9) F F(add9) F             E
  For you,                for you,                     just for you

  Took me by surprise, left me standing there
                                   C#m7
  The cold winds blew while you watched Fred Astaire
         E             Emaj7       E7    C#m7
  He was dancing all alone, up the stairs
  E             Emaj7       A       G   A   G
  Dancing all alone, up the stairs
